[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3229754, member: 5412"] Same here. At our range in Ponca, we have to do maintenance on the target stands, etc and constantly buy lathes to hold targets and 2X4's because someone has shot them up even though we have the range rules with pictures of what not to do on ever range right at the firing line. Evidently they are testing their "firepower" as they shoot the 2X4's and 4X4's off in 6" or so lengths all the way down to the target stands, then I have to bring the metal stands home and repair them, costing me hours of time I could spend doing something else and the club money that could be used to make range improvements. After repeated requests in the monthly gun club newsletter I publish each month that each member receives in their email, there is still repeated damage doing the same thing. I've since realized I have to make the target stands pretty much pistol round proof, and have modified the design making them 2X heavier than they were before, but my workload has decreased. 4 of us spent almost 30 hours over the last couple of weeks cleaning and organizing the ranges where they don't look like trash pits. We have such an amazing facility with amenities that no other range in Oklahoma offers and some still think they can trash it out with no respect for those that volunteer to clean it up. Amazing how some people are pigs. [/QUOTE]
